Answer:The information was expected is the most likely reason why a stock price might not react at all on the day that new information related to the stock’s issuer is released. Assuming the market is semi strong form efficient.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The major reason that the stock price might not react to the information related to that stock was the expectancy of information in advance. It was a piece of expected information. When something is expected then our response towards it does not bring much change.

Similarly, when it is already expected to get some information related to the stock, on receiving that information the stock price does not react. It means it might neither fall nor rise.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This is probably one of the greatest issues that cartels around the world face, since their agreements are difficult to maintain because it is very difficult to control the price and output policies of its members.

Even the largest cartel in the world, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), has problems when it comes to monitoring the petroleum output of its members. When some countries need more money they just increase their petroleum production even if the rest of the cartel doesn't agree with it.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

$88,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What amount of compensation should Argon report in Logan's Form W-2 for year 2

First step is to determine the bargain element

Bargain Element=$25 per share-$10per share

Bargain Element=$15 per share

Now let determine the amount of compensation

Using this formula

Compensation=Salary earned+Taded stock+(Shares of publicly traded stock*Bargain element)

Let plug in the formula

Compensation=$60,000+$13,000+($100 shares*$15 per share)

Compensation=$60,000+$13,000+$15,000

Compensation=$88,000

Therefore the amount of compensation that Argon should report in Logan's Form W-2 for year 2 $88,000

Griffins Goat Farm, Inc., has sales of $664,000, costs of $326,000, depreciation expense of $70,000, interest expense of $45,000
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a. $6.54 per share

b. $1.73 per share

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. Earning per share is

= Net income ÷ shares of common stock outstanding

where,

Net income is

= Sales - costs - depreciation expense - interest expense - tax expense

= $664,000 - $326,000 - $70,000 - $45,000 - $49,060

= $173,940

The tax expense is

= (Sales - costs - depreciation expense - interest expense) × tax rate

= ($664,000 - $326,000 - $70,000 - $45,000) × 22%

= $49,060

Now the earning per share is

= $173,940 ÷ 26,600 shares

= $6.54 per share

b. Dividend per share = (Total dividend) ÷ (number of shares)

= ($46,000) ÷ (26,600 shares)

= $1.73 per share
